#To open "Screenshot" go to '''Application-Accessories-Screenshot'''. see above image. 
#Once you click on the Screenshot option. it open the above window. Here there will be three options to take pictures. 
##'''Grab the whole desktop''' -To take a Screenshot with entire screen, select “Grab the whole desktop” and click “Take Screenshot”. 
##'''Grab the Current Window'''-To take the Screenshot of the current active window alone, select “Grab the Current Window” and click “Take Screenshot”. 
##Both the above two options allow you to grab the screen after a time delay of a defined number of seconds.  This is useful when we need to take screen shots of the different tool bar functionalities and demonstrate the changes from different commands in an application.  This is also useful when you want to take screenshots of dynamic displays - like an animation or video or simulation.  
##'''Select Area to Grab'''- To take a particular rectangle area alone, select “Select Area to Grab” and click “Take Screenshot”. You will need to mark out a rectangle on the screen, which will be covered by the Screenshot. Begin at the one end and move to the diagonally opposite end, to complete the rectangle, keeping the left mouse click pressed. When you reach the  diagonally opposite end, release the mouse to complete the rectangle, which will be the 'area' of the Screenshot.Supposing you are playing a video on one part of the screen and you want only the video to be captured, you can use this feature, to take a photo of the video (which will be the image which is displayed in the video at the time of the taking of the screen shot.

====Saving the files and formats====
